Couple of points:
• Look closely at the photo of the guy holding the container of this product, note that his thumb is actually larger than the product you're about to pay fifteen bucks for.
• Note to Specs writer, while we appreciate your noting the weight, the dimensions of the product would be more helpful (or in this case more shocking).
• Note to Clayton's label printer: "Ounce" in this instance would be singular, rather than plural.
• Note to Marketing department's copy writer: "rich in vitamins, minerals, and fatty acids" sounds more like something you'd eat, rather than something you'd put on your face. We don't want to confuse anybody--just say'n.
• Not that I assume anyone really cares about that whole "responsibly sourced ingredients" line folks seem compelled to add to everything sold these days, but I would point out that this particular tree, is listed as "VULNERABLE" on the INCN's Red List of Threatened Species ( http://www.iucnredlist.org/details/37083/0 ), just say'n...
And finally, here's something I know most of you will get a kick out of, but especially Clayton! Last month while doing some business in Canada, I noticed this little PSA poster from the University of Saskatchewan, no less, taped up on an office door:

Yikes! pretty in-your-face for Canadians, who are normally a soft-spoken and polite bunch, on the whole (unless you're a baby seal--but I digress).
Anyway, food for thought? kidding--don't eat this stuff.
•Note to Clayton's label printer: add "not to be taken internally"
That weight sounds like what the shave soap people send out as sample s for $5 or less. Which is next to nothing as is, I'll pass on this simply on the weight vs price ratio
MrWolfThe value is actually there because these solid colognes are all made with 100% essential oils. Nothing artificial or synthetic in the product. Think of this in the sense that when you purchase a 2oz bottle of cologne or perfume for $75 - $100. It is the same idea but with a solid application rather than a spray.
MSRP of $20 here on Massdrop??? It's $18 at their webpage:

Agree that committing to a lower price is great ($17.99 or $14.99)...but the drop should not mention that inflated MSRP.
Got mine today - smells nice (cedar-citrus) but I somehow didn't notice the size - 9 grams and it is extremely tiny - like a half of finger - aaaaaand the aroma wears a bit quick during the day
I purchased the bay rum scented cologne and it just arrived yesterday (2/7/18). I have to say, I'm disappointed with how it smells. I'll qualify that by saying that everyone's sense of what smells good differs. I don't think that "bay rum" accurately captures the smell of it. For people considering purchasing this in the future, it smells like cloves. Just cloves. Strong, burn your nose cloves. I read the ingredients and it says there are other things in there, but I can't detect any of them. They are all totally overpowered with the strong scent of cloves. This cologne should have been named "cloves". Perhaps all caps might even be more accurate. CLOVES!! CLOVES!! That's getting close. If I had the option to use all caps, a bold font, and increase the size to 36pt. (AKA turn it up to 11) I think that might accurately capture it. Seriously folks, stick your nose into a jar of cloves and take a deep sniff. Yep, that nails it.
So, in short, if you want to walk around smelling not like rum, or bay rum, but a baked ham sans the porky goodness, (AKA CLOVES) you'll love this cologne. I want to like it. I really do. There's just nothing about it to like. :-(
That_One_GuyIt only smells like cloves during the workday. As soon as you leave work it transforms into the sweet smell of stale bay rum. This is a built built in, timelocked safety feature that prevents you from being fired for reeking of alcohol during working hours (or at a minimum being called to HR and told that they suspect you've been drinking at work and are sending you to the testing lab for a mandatory drug & alcohol test).
Since you smell like a cloved ham I'll request that Massdrop try to get a drop going for pineappke slice earrings. That way you'll have the look to go with the smell.
